Milosevic Says He's Not Suicidal

Published January 13, 2015

Slobodan Milosevic says he's not suicidal, is in good health and high spirits, and is convinced he did the right thing for Yugoslavia, said a Canadian lawyer who saw the former president in jail.

``I am the moral winner,'' Milosevic said Monday in an authorized statement through the lawyer, Christopher Black. ``I am proud of everything I did for my people and my country, and everything I did was honest.''

Black spent nearly two hours with Milosevic in an interview room at the U.N. detention unit, a wing of a Dutch prison in the seaside suburb of Scheveningen outside The Hague. A guard was posted on the other side of a metal and glass door, but a U.N. translator was present throughout the conversation, even though the two men spoke in English and had asked to be alone.
